My reaction to the article The Game of school was thoroughly shocked by how much I agreed with certain statements about the "loops holes" in school. I think it was fair to say that the true passion for learning is dying out sense kids just want to "get by" in school. There are definitely a fair share of people who do not apply to it but there is also a significant amount of people that can relate to this. On page 94 when they were mentioning how young students were joking around in their questions for the teacher and were not taking the task seriously. I do see this happening in an elementary, middle, or even high school I guess kids will be kids, but there is a significant lack of discipline in our education system in this country compared to other countries such as India. There will always be lazy kids who just do not want to do the work. However, it is a two way street between students and the teachers. Students must have a good attention span and enthusiasm to learn in the class, but it's only going to happen if the teacher makes the material purposeful to know. I do agree that students and teachers must be allies in order to fight against ignorance, oppression, and poverty of the spirit. I have found teachers that do not care about the class, knowing they still get their paycheck at the end of the day, but mainly in college. There are teachers like that however at any level of schooling. Also the quote on page 98 saying, "a major part of the Game of School; waiting for someone else to answer the questions, waiting for someone else to take the initiative," I found compelling because that really is what school feels like some times. I feel we have lact of unity and certainty because of the building unanswered questions we come across by trying to solve other issues, and technology is truly separating the unity. Kids can go online do their homework, there's no more using just the raw mind to solve problems. We need our phones, computers, and iPads for everything. I find it unnecessary. I do think that there are kids out there passionate to learn though, so the whole "game of school" is a little dramatized, but does have truth to it.
